On Tuesday in the round of 32 WTA Slovenia open, Donna Vekic of Croatia will face Diane Parry of France.
The recent North American excursion didn’t bring Donna Vekic much happiness. After overcoming clay-court expert Mayar Sherif in straight sets, she suffered a qualifying loss in Cincinnati, first-round losses in Toronto and the US Open, and a disappointing second-round performance in Washington, D.C. The Croat has endured fitness nightmares over the past two seasons, appearing in just two tournaments in the first three months of 2022 owing to a left foot injury that required surgery in early 2021. With the support of Birmingham quarterfinals and the 125K in Paris, she is just just managing to stay in the top 100.
Three weeks ago, in Granby, Canada, Diane Parry took another decisive stride in her breakout season and blasted into her first WTA semifinal. Tatjana Maria, a semifinals at Wimbledon, and Tereza Martincova, the eighth seed, were both defeated by her, and she only lost to eventual champion Daria Kasatkina. Up until this May, the Frenchwoman had only won one main draw match on a tour. Since then, she has advanced to the third round of Wimbledon, Roland-Garros, and Palermo, where she defeated Barbora Krejcikova. She has also climbed the WTA rankings to the top 75.
Donna Vekic and Diane Parry are scheduled to face each other in the round of 32 of the 2022 WTA Slovenia Open on Tuesday, September 13. The tournament is scheduled to begin on September 12 and end on September 18.
The 2022 WTA Slovenia Open is scheduled to commence on September 12 and go on until September 18 this year. The tournament will have five rounds of play excluding the qualifiers. These are the round of 32, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals.
